Tf2 (Team Fortress 2)

[Mr. Magoolachub]

Anyone else here play tf2? Sorry in advance if a thread like this already exists and had the title "tf2", that was under the search limit, so I really don't know :\.

For anyone who doesn't know, Tf2 is a class based, cartoon stylized FPS by VALVe. There are 9 classes in the game, Scout, Soldier, Pyro, Demoman, Heavy, Engineer, Medic, Sniper, and the Spy. Each has it's own individual playing style, for example, if you're playing as the heavy, you're going to want to get right in to the action with your machine gun, as a medic, you want to be in the battle also, but more hanging back behind your team and healing the injured (or just sticking with a heavy if you want...), if you're a spy, you have a lot of things to deal with. First, you gotta make sure that your location and actions when you're disguised as the opposite team seem legit, as you can't fire your gun without un-disguising, then, you have to make sure that they don't notice you hanging out RIGHT BEHIND their back, then you have to time the back stab right, to make sure it hits and you can get away.

I would recommend this game for a try to anyone, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but chances are, if you like it, you'll like it a lot. Also I'm probably not the best guy to describe the game.

I really like this game, it's a nice fast paced action game similar to Counter Strike but more team orientated (Counter-Strike is similar but you can easily have a game by yourself and not include you're team mates).

If you're ready for the challenge of true team-based online action, you'll find it in Team Fortress 2. With TF 2, you'll go into battle as part of a cohesive squad of fellow warriors all bent on the same goal, whether it's storming a beach, demolishing a bridge or escorting a VIP to safety. And you'll do it knowing your teammates are watching your back as carefully as you're watching theirs. Begin by assuming one of twelve roles, each with unique strengths and weaknesses. If you're looking for a straight-up fight, you'll choose Marine or Commando. Prefer the shadows? You'll make a cunning Spy or Sniper. Medics and Engineers support their teammates through bravery and ingenuity. Focus the raw force of your team's talents through communication and strategizing.
